The staff of REALS surprised their GMD with a wonderful gift and implored Alhaji Ahmed Yakasai to read out the note attached to the gift, expressing heartfelt appreciation for the GMD for his precious and priceless personality, the way he relates with his staff and runs the company with fairness to all, and also the way reaches out with concern about everyone’s welfare and their individual families. The note described Mr Ade Popoola as “a great boss and mentor to look up to.”
